The Blue Devils have also won neutral-site games in the Georgia Dome versus No. 3 Kentucky (Atlanta, Ga.), Imperial Arena versus Minnesota, VCU and No. 2 Louisville (Nassau, Bahamas), and the Izod Center against Temple (East Rutherford, N.J.).
• Duke shot a season-high 90.1 percent (20-of-22) from the free throw line in the game. It was Duke’s highest free throw percentage in a game since Jan. 25, 2012, when the Blue Devils shot 94.4 percent on 17-of-18 shooting.
